Abstract
Subjects colour-named sets of threat content words and neutral control words, under conditions of high or low self-awareness. Threat words w ere colour-named more slowly than neutral words, under conditions of h igh self-awareness. This does not support the hypothesis that self-ref erential material is preferentially processed.
